09 Jul '02

Registration for SIGCOMM 2002 is now open! We strongly recommend that everyone make their travel plans as soon as possible. Last minute full fares into Pittsburgh are often 4 times more expensive than the reasonable fares only available through early advance discounts. SIGCOMM 2002 Highlights: * SIGCOMM 2002 Award Winner and Keynote Address: Scott Shenker, ICSI * Four tutorials: (1) IP Control of Optical Networks and GMPLS (2) Detecting Packet Patterns at High Speeds (3) How to Use the Emulab Public Network Testbeds (4) Data-mining the Internet: What we know, what we don't, and how we can learn more * Two workshops: (1) Computer Networking: Curriculum Designs and Educational Challenges (2) Retrospecting Workshop on ATM * Invited Talk by Mike O'Dell, Compass Rose Labs "Reflections on the Future of Very Large Data Networks" * An expanded student poster session * Two Position papers * And, of course, most important of all: 25 great papers selected out of a field of 300 submissions. Tutorials start on Monday Aug 19th, the main program starts Wednesday Aug 21st. Visit the conference web site at http://www.acm.org/sigcomm/sigcomm2002 for details about registration and the conference. Matt Mathis Peter Steenkiste

WG 5.5
by Augusto Casaca 09 Jul '02

09 Jul '02

Dear TC6 members, Last week I sent you a proposal for the establishment of a new WG 5.5 on Virtual Enterprises. Up to now I have not received any comment on it. Does this mean that all of you agree with the aims and scope of this WG? If I do not receive any comments until this Friday I will assume so. Best regards Augusto

Dear Otto, This is precisely the conference statistics page that I mentioned at our last two TC6 meetings, and where our conferences should appear. ;-) I did the job for (part of) WG6.1 some months ago, but many other IFIP conferences are still missing there.

IFIP Publication Policy
by Augusto Casaca 09 Jul '02

09 Jul '02

Dear all, Sometime ago I circulated a document from TC5 with a proposal for the IFIP publication policy. I received comments from Arun Iyengar, Guy Leduc, Harry Rudin and Lyman Chapin. I tried to put together some of these comments and my own ideas in a short document that I attach to this mail. Please let me know whether I can distribute this document within IFIP as a TC6 view or if I should change it. Please let me have your comments until this coming Friday. I wish to send it to IFIP on that evening. Best regards Augusto

The CFP can be found at http://www.med-hoc-net.org The First Annual Mediterranean Ad Hoc Networking Workshop,Med-hoc-Net 2002, sponsored by IFIP, will take place in Hotel Chia Laguna ( http://www.hotelchialaguna.com ), Sardegna, Italy, Sept4-6,2002. The aim of the Med-hoc-Net Workshop is to bring together researchers from both sides of the Atlantic (and Pacific) to the shores of the Mediterranean sea. The Workshop will serve as a forum for ad hoc network technologists and visionaries from academia, industry and research labs, to present current research, advanced technology, ongoing prototyping efforts, experience reports, case studies, and descriptions of innovative ad hoc systems. Each offering of the Workshop will have a different theme. The specific theme this year will be Quality of Service in ad hoc networks. The best papers will be published in a special issue of the ACM WINET Journal Invited speaker: Leonard Kleinrock(UCLA) Topics will include (but are not limited to) : QoS-Oriented multi-hop mobile network architectures, Intserv, Diffserv, MPLS etc. protocols over AdHoc networks QoS support in Bluetooth, HomeR, HIPERLAN, IEEE 802.11 etc. Multimedia applications Middleware for support in Ad Hoc networks and real-time transports over Ad Hoc networks Unicast and multicast routing in ad hoc multi-hop wireless networks Resource discovery and network reconfiguration Multimedia location services Scheduling, radio resource sharing and MAC protocols for multi hop networks Call admission and traffic control policies for ad hoc networks Power management and control algorithms Fault tolerance and error recovery Interconnection between Ad Hoc and wired networks Congestion control Ad Hoc TCP implementations Fair sharing between different traffic classes Performance evaluation of QoS-oriented protocols, middleware and applications via measurement, analytical models or simulation QoS enabling ad hoc network prototypes Signal processing algorithms (coding, compression) for Ad Hoc networks Security in Ad Hoc networks General Chairs : Mario Gerla and Guy Pujolle Technical Program Chair : Khaldoun Al Agha (LRI, France) Technical Program Committee : Arve Aagesen Norvegian University, Norway) Hossam Afifi (INT, France) Ian Akyildiz (Georgia Tech, USA) Khaldoun Al Agha(LRI, France) Hamid Aghvami (King's College London, UK) Roberto Battiti (University of Trento, Italy) Elizabeth Belding-Royer (UCSB, USA) Raouf Boutaba (Waterloo, Canada) Otto Duarte (UFRJ, Brazil) Anne Fladenmuller (LIP6, France) Jean-Pierre Hubaux (EPFL, Switzerland) Philippe Jacquet (INRIA, France) Farouk Kamoun (ENSI, Tunis, Tunisia) Parviz Kermani (IBM, USA) Ulf Körner(Lund University, Sweden) Gérard Le Lann (INRIA, France) Daniela Maniezzo (UCLA, USA) Gianluca Mazzini (University of Ferrara, Italy) Lazaros Merakos (University of Athens, Greece) Guy Omidyar (CWC, Singapure) Sergio Palazzo (University of Catania, Italy) Giovanni Pau (UCLA, USA) Kimmo Raatikainen (Univ. of Helsinki, Finland) Tomas Robles (Univ. of Madrid DIM, Spain) Jan Slavik (Testcom,CZ) Sami Tabbabe (Sup Com) Samir Tohmé (ENST, France) Franco Vatalaro (University of Rome) Bernhard Walke (Univ of Aachen, Germany)
